halo 2 is supposedly to come out on PC but who knows when. and halo 3 is set for xbox 360.

and sorry about the video, maybe i can find a better link...

i should've known there weren't that many halo fans on an RPG fan website tongue.gif

Try this.

I checked out the video, I'm a halo fan. I played the first two and couldn't get enough, one thing I didn't like was the removal of the assault rifle which by the looks of this video they plan to bring back...I'm hoping. biggrin.gif

I hope this one is a closer match to the first halo, I played it for over a year (with partners) because it wasn't so good playing alone.

Anyways this is great news thanks Shogun. biggrin.gif

Look on Bungies site to get the video as well, plus comments on it.

P.S. If you have a 360 and live just download it onto your Xbox, although it might take a while...
Pushtrak
I am seriously looking forward to this game.

And, to those of you who think that you can predict how good Halo 3 will be based on the length of Halo 2.... Shame on you.

Halo has too much fanboyism to me. Its not a bad game, but for like a month all it was in half the xbox community was "OMG HALOZORZ" and it drove me crazy..
Some of my friends irl are still like that about Halo 2 huh.gif

When I play a game I rate it on the game engine too, halos game engine didnt seem to unique.

Yeah, seriously. I feel the same way.
Ibis
Halo makes people insane = a wifely observation. laugh.gif

I always found FPS really boring, however I do enjoy halo even though I hardly ever play it. It is good for playing when drunk or entertaining drunk people.
Ibis
Hahahaha ... I gave up entertaining drunk people when I no longer get tips from them. Otherwise, you have to treat them all like giant, very loud children.
Pisces
Exactly, children like Halo. Perhaps I could get pokemon next time I entertain drunk people.

I find that statement offensive, I enjoy the Halo series drunk or not and I'm not a child... wink.gif

Halo is a fun game to play when you have lots of people around that are fairly good at it, makes it a challenge...or if you're just drunk I suppose it can be a challenge as well. tongue.gif

Ummm...no pokemon for me thanks...
minque
Yeah..Halo is thrilling! I use to sit by my son and watch him play it on xbox!!!!
Ibis
Exactly Minque ... I like to watch Cain play it. He plays it when he gets in this rambunctious mood when nothing else can appease his bloodlust.

Don't be offended by the little children statement, Kiln. Nobody was calling you one - just an observation that kids like to play it too. Besides, "unless ye be like these the little children ..... etc."

One can create something unique and unfun. Halo's unique wasn't unique, however it was extremely fun. For me, at least. tongue.gif

I'm looking forward to Halo 3. It looks to be very cool, based on both the trailer and where the storyline's been going. It'll prove interesting, at least. cool.gif

Yeah, kids also love Street Fighter games.

Or at least, I did when I was a kid, and I still do.

I see later you say you didn't mean it in an offensive way, but from that post, you sure make one wonder.

Edit: Though Pisces post seems more antagonistical.
Ibis
lol! Well Pushtrak, I was a cocktail waitress for a number of years and you don't talk to a cocktail waitress about drunk people without getting an honest reaction. Because, while they are drunk off their @sses, living it up, having a great time - we are the ones who are sober and seriously have to deal with all their shenanigans. That might be fun with one drunk, but fill a whole room with them and be the one sober person, and see how you feel about it. .... but hey, it was a living!

I meant it in a funny way, not to insult anyone. I used to get drunk too ... just not in public restaurants. With my friends at home.

Oh and for the record, Pisces is always more antagonistic than me ... that's why you see us "commenting" on each other occassionally. He hasn't finnessed his act yet like I have ... ROLF!!

I played halo when I went to my friend's house, good hamster cave times.

Was more of a joke actually, not offended in the least really. You'll find that its rather hard to offend me and if you had, you would've known it. tongue.gif

Based on the trailer, you'll not be pissed off then.

Halo Combat Evolved was a pretty good game, overhyped but fun to play. Halo 2 was a joke, single player was WAY too short and easy even on legendary. Let's not even talk about the ending. Online is unbalanced, way too much auto aim, magnetic bullets, and large hitboxes. They took all the skill right out of the game. Let's just hope Halo 3 is more like Halo then Halo 2. kvleft.gif
Wurlon
Halo was probably the best shooter game I have ever played, but why? I can only stir up so many reasons from the depths of my mind and have concluded that its uniqueness and emotional storyline were key concepts. Also, the unbalanced multiplayer was almost addictive. When Halo was released, everything was new! The marines has bestowed one of the most original uniforms, in my opinion, and the campaign was just exhilarating.

Halo 2 became worse... the marines looked more like today's marines... the weapons were more like today's weapons (SMG) and well.. the campaign was pretty much just "slaughter the enemy" and no real missions or anything interesting. Multiplayer was great, some say even better than halo 2, but the overabundance of useless or balanced weapons made it hard to follow up. I, myself, play halo 2 online and I have seen more toddlers play it than people of the correct age! I mean, I am only 14 but the way these children act... cursing and profanity.. really demolishes the xbox live halo 2 community.

Halo 3 looks like a eye-candy game to me, probably even worse than halo 2. I'll probably buy it though because I've been a loyal fan so far (as in purchasing the games, maybe not in opinions).

Cortana looks really bad in the trailer.
Sir Radont
I've always liked Halo, it's just a really fun game that I can kill some time with when I'm at my brother's house. I don't oiwn an Xbox or a 360 but I am looking forward to Halo 3. Not a fanboy or anything, just a casual fan.

I have a halo fan fiction story I'm working on, you can read the first three chapters here.
Kiln
I saw your fan fic before but I guess I didn't make the connection that it was yours, I'll probably check that out soon man, I like your writing style...and halo. laugh.gif

I like Halo, I don't play it that much at all (I don't have a Xbox) but whenever I go over to my friends house we play Halo most of the time via xbox live, its fun yellin at the people biggrin.gif (the random conversations, not the ones with insults left and right)
The Metal Mallet
If you ever hear a conversation where the guy says "Hey, let's all have showers after the game" that's my buddy.

It's basically our tradition that on every half-day of school my buddy and I have lunch at Harvey's then play Halo 2 on X-box Live. Good times all the time. Though I personally think I'm the better Halo player, just inconsistant at times tongue.gif
Lord Revan


Well, I liked Halo, but I prefer Halo 2. Kind of like how I perfer Oblivion to Morrowind (I'm sorry if I just angered any Morrowind lovers).

The battle rifle is alright with me, and so is the assualt rifle. But the SMG filled its spot well in my opinion. And I only play heroic on Outskirts and Metropolis, and even then I might get owned by some Jackal sniper or Elite. I only wish you could use a fuel rod gun in multiplayer (yes, I know you can use it in the PC version of Halo 1). And I thought the ending was pretty good (better than the Halo ending). I *do* miss the original pistol though.

Halo 3 looks promising, and I hope you can get to use more vehicles and new weapons. So I'm looking forward to 2007 (and Mass Effect). biggrin.gif

My mother got Halo 3 for me at christmas. Great game!

Halo 3 is great fun, and the story was waaaay better than that of 2, thankfully. I haven't beaten it on Legendary yet..... I'm on "Cortana" and must have died at least 200 times or more in the levels precedings that, cumulative, to get that far. Stinking Jackal snipers..... and Brutes in general XD
Lord Revan

Yeah, Halo 3 is better than Halo 2. I haven't worried about legendary so much, heroic was enough for me for now. Any of you guys have Live? huh.gif

No, It's so messy to create a live account but my gamertag is Dagoth. If I sign up I will be Kethaka. Maybe I do someday..

Wolfie
Yeah, I've got Live. Haven't used it much of late since I've been playing Lost Odyssey. Tag is DireApostasy
Bolzmania
Okay I have live now but my router isn't xbox 360 compatible so I think I'm getting a Linksys instead. My gamertag is Kethaka. I can send messages and invites but I can't play online.
Lord Revan

I'm Wanderer101, even if I had the desire to change my tag after three years I don't think 800 microsoft points (I think that's what it is) is worth changing your name. The game I have that I play live on are Halo 3 and Ace Combat 6 (I don't play turok on live enough to list it with the former two).
Bolzmania
Okay.. I think I'm still able to send friend invites. So you may get an invite from Kethaka.
